He needs to let another person edit his films their own way while he’s doing his own thing.

Im not the biggest Malick fan but I always felt his 70's films had heart his later films lacked. A simple shot where you can feel the warmth is more impressive than any spinning camera doohickey

Caviezel was perfect for that role, understated performance

Yeah, Tree of Life never impressed me like it impressed a lot of other folks and Knight of Cups literally felt like self-parody to me. Those ‘70s movies to me had a grounded self-awareness to them that his later films completely go off the pretentious deep end with.

@RASIE not going to like this

agreed to an extent though. Tree of Life is great, but everything since has been self indulgent and basically capitalized on that "newer" form of directing he developed for that film.

using soulseek for the first time

Exactly

Something like this feels more biblical than anything his later films try to reach.

everything I could never find is here gonna share a bunch of stuff too this is awesome

Yeah, this wasn’t it to me

I can’t watch new Malick films longer than an hour at a time

Greatest filmmaker alive

has anybody actually read Dune?

I’m with Rasie. Knight of Cups is great.

He rocks but no

Malick top 5 in America but too many Asian folks got his number

Bale is great, need to rewatch. couldn't vibe with Song to Song and haven't seen anything since that

PTA keeps getting better though

Think there was just the WWII movie since that

I’m not putting PTA against Malick, and Paul’s my boy and I like him way more
